Just two more days..

Just two more days and Jenn and I are going on a very well deserved vacation. We are going to Maine !!! Then I am taking an additional week off, so after Thursday the 23rd, I will not step foot or even drive by my job until September 10th.

Jenn and I have been busy trying to get ready for the trip. We have been doing some extra cleaning, and yard work. I get kind of funky when I can’t clean. Cleaning to me is relaxing and it helps me unwind. In short it really makes me happy. So knowing that we have a clean house to come back to will make me feel better about going away.

This past weekend we went to Dave and Buster’s. A really cool place for adults to unwind, have a drink and play games. You win tickets too, then shop for things with your tickets in their store. We also went to a family friends open house on Sunday. Sharon built a beautiful house in Canandagua, near the lake. The food was great and Jenn and I had a nice time walking along the lake and being around family and friends.

My garden is giving up. I picked the last melon yesturday, the last of everything actually, except lettuces, and tomatoes. Those are still going strong. I am looking forward to putting away all my summer house stuff, pots and windchimes, and decorating for fall. Cornstalk, pumpkins outside. And all my really funky cute things from bittersweet inside. I love the fall.

Jenn I I will continue to eat as much organic as possible too. It’s not just a summer thing we were trying out anymore, it has become a way of life. We will also continue to do meatless 3 to 4 times a week. We are happy with the way we have been feeling. Both of us have effortlessly lost weight. Jenn lost 10lbs. and I lost 14lbs. I have realized though that feeling better and being healthy is more important than being skinny. Something I know Jenn and I will never be. What we are is what we are and it feels good to be not only healthy, but happy. When you have those two things at the same time in your life, well its great.

I also wrote a letter to Heather. I was going back and forth about it and decided 3 years has gone by and the bitterness and anger has passed. I just wanted to be acountable for my actions, and say I was sorry because I know in being her friend at the time I needed to say that. I also have reached a point where I don’t think I will ever get an apology from her, and I am okay with that. Life is too short to have any negativity towards anyone. Also being in a place in my life right now where everything is good, and so much is different (but in a good way) I just did it. And I feel at peace with it.

Happiness and love to all who enter here.
